march to victory

"Ah Sang, your big black is really amazing, it killed a wolf in one bite."

"It's nothing, it's just a dog in the water, and it's the weakest." Ah Sang sat down, gently stroked the big black mane, and smiled lightly.

Southern wolves are inferior to northern wolves, they are smaller than northern wolves, but even so, Zhang Qingshan also knows how cunning and powerful southern forest wolves are.But seeing Ah Sang's understatement, he became even more interested.

"Ah Sang, how do you know that this wolf is the weakest?"

Under Ah Sang's explanation, everyone understood that the wolves really had scouts: Generally speaking, when they couldn't figure out the opponent, they would send their companions to scout, or send them to death.And this kind of scouts are either the weakest or the oldest among the wolves, or they are wounded in the battle and cannot recover for a while, etc. There is another situation, that is, when the wolves do not have such cowardice The king will bite one of the relatively weakest ones and send him to the enemy as a scout.

Some people in the crowd didn't believe this, so they ran to the wolf scout who had been killed by the big black to check. As a result, they really found that the wolf's rear left leg did have a wound, not big, but deep.Only then did everyone believe Ah Sang's words, and admired his understanding of wolves.

Suddenly, there was a wolf howl in the distance, causing all the wolves to howl.

When Ah Sang heard the voice, he stood up immediately.

"Woof! Woof..." Dahei, who was lying next to Ah Sang, heard the howl of the wolf, just opened his eyes and looked over there, and had no other reaction, but when he saw Ah Sang standing up, he also stood up immediately. He howled wildly in the direction of howling wolves, and the sound was like thunder, resounding in all directions.

Its barking, like a provocation, caused the wolves on the opposite side to howl endlessly, and Dahei seemed to be enraged, the barking became louder, and he seemed to rush to fight.Until Ah Sang touched its head, it looked at Ah Sang, rubbed its head against Ah Sang's thigh, and whispered softly like a sob, as if it had been greatly wronged.

Ah Sang patted it on the head, let it sit down, then said to Zhang Qingshan while stroking it: "Companion Zhang, the wolves will not come again tonight."

Seeing Zhang Qingshan looking over in puzzlement, he said seriously: "Firstly, it is almost dawn, and the wolves dare not attack human villages in broad daylight. Secondly, Dahei just killed their scout with one bite. Shocked them so that they dare not easily offend..." Speaking of this, Ah Sang paused, thought for a while, and said: "They will leave here temporarily, but they will not leave too far. After all, their wolf king It's okay, their confidence is still there. And the dignity of the wolf king does not allow it to return without success under such circumstances, so I think they will definitely attack aggressively tomorrow night."

"Don't wait until tomorrow night. If they don't come to us after dawn today, we'll just go find them. Even if we can't wipe them all out, we must let them lose more than half of them. Only in this way can we ensure that the people here are safe after we leave." There will be a peaceful life in a year or two."

Hearing this, Ah Sang glanced at Zhang Qingshan in surprise, nodded and said nothing.

"Pass my order: Tell the cooking team to start a fire and cook quickly, and ask the women in the village to help. After everyone has finished breakfast, it will be dawn. When the time comes, the assault company will be dispatched to wipe out this pack of wolves."

After finishing speaking, he smiled at Ah Sang: "Ah Sang, when the time comes, I have to ask you and the men in the village to help guide the way."

Ah Sang nodded, got up and walked towards the village.

Dahei turned to look at him suspiciously, until he walked a few meters away, slapped his thigh with his right hand, Dahei immediately got up, turned around and chased after him... still didn't bark, it really was a biting dog and didn't bark!It's amazing.

As the sun rose, Zhou Baoyu came back accompanied by two soldiers. Apart from bringing back a dozen horses and three boxes of bullets, he had no reinforcements.It turned out that the 49th Regiment had been busy collecting and storing wild vegetables for the past few days. Coincidentally, they also received an order to eliminate the nearby wolves yesterday, so there was no extra manpower for them.

On the contrary, hundreds of men came from the nearby villages, not only riding horses, some even brought several horses with them. Zhang Qingshan was overjoyed.After asking, I have to sigh the influence of Nasang's family in this area: Except for a few people who are friends with Ahsang, most of these people don't know Ahsang, but they all admire Ahsang's reputation and get Ahsang to help him. The father-in-law went to exterminate the wolves, and after asking everyone for help, he came spontaneously.

Including the assault company and more than a dozen men from Shangcun, there are 240 people in total.What surprised Zhang Qingshan the most was that many of them brought their own Tibetan mastiffs.Counting carefully, there are actually 38 Tibetan mastiffs.However, what is interesting is that although these Tibetan mastiffs have aggressive and territorial nature and bark at each other when they meet, as long as Dahei appears, there will be no barking sound of Tibetan mastiffs. It can be seen that Dahei is indeed the leader of Tibetan mastiffs. king.

What the herdsmen on the grassland need most is cattle and horses, and most of the horses in herdsmen's homes are well-raised, the kind that no one who rides them will resist.Only, not many saddles.Most of the soldiers in the assault company were from the south, and many of them never knew how to ride a horse before.That is to say, in the past ten days, after getting acquainted with the villagers, everyone learned how to ride horses from the herdsmen when they were resting and out of curiosity.

With this level of riding skills, it's okay to play around and play, but if you want to chase wolves, you need to run at high speed, they can't do it.Besides, without a saddle, it would be even more dangerous.

A few warriors wanted to demonstrate their riding skills to the locals and win the battle for the assault company, but in the end they fell off their horses in embarrassment, which made the spectators burst into laughter.However, after laughing, at Ah Sang's mention, the local men gave up their saddles to the Red Army soldiers one after another.Zhang Qingshan was a little embarrassed and wanted to refuse, but I heard that if there is a saddle, as long as someone who knows how to ride a horse, no matter how fast he moves on the horseback, as long as his mind is not disturbed, he will not fall off.On the contrary, once he fell off the horse, he would be seriously injured, or even die or be paralyzed. Zhang Qingshan could no longer refuse for the sake of face.

The matter that made the soldiers of the assault company rush to blush, when the team started to move as agreed last night, after leaving the village, most of them rode on horseback with saddles, and as a result, when they ran, they still couldn't keep up. native.Even the locals can grab the weeds on the ground with one hand without a saddle on the back of a horse.Comparing the two, alas~!I have to admit that there is still a big gap between this riding skill and the opponent.Who told the other party to grow up on horseback, if it is not as good as it is, it is not as good as it.

240 six people, according to what was discussed yesterday, everyone was divided into four squadrons. After determining the hiding place of the wolves, the four squadrons surrounded the area within ten kilometers: the first squadron was led by Zhang Qingshan, a total of 60 people.They are responsible for outflanking from the north (front); the second squadron, led by Peng Peng, also has 60 people, and is responsible for outflanking from the east (right).The third squadron of 60 people, led by a local middle-aged man named Zhuo Da, was responsible for outflanking from the west (left).Each of these three squadrons has forty members of the assault company, and the remaining 20 are locals. First, they can be guides. Second, shooting from horseback in high-speed movement is really not as accurate as native.The fourth Asan was the squadron leader, Tian Guozhong was the vice-captain, leading the remaining 60 people, and was responsible for driving the wolves away from the front.

Hu Yingze stayed in the village with a squad of soldiers.

It is worth mentioning that because I don’t know the exact number of wild wolves in this pack of wolves—Master Ka and Asan both dared to send scouts in based on this pack of wolves. Judging from this point, the number of wolves in this pack is absolutely not There will be less than 26, otherwise, they would never have the guts to openly attack a human-inhabited village.In addition, the soldiers of the assault company had a low hit rate when shooting on horseback, but the assault company had two box cannons and was much better equipped than them, so they had to adopt a mixed formation.Moreover, in order to prevent the scattered wild wolves from slipping through the net, and also to find the main force of the wolf pack, each squadron is equipped with four Tibetan mastiffs.But the Fourth Squadron, because it is responsible for driving away the wolves from the front, although the number is insufficient, it is rich in Tibetan mastiffs. There are a total of [-] Tibetan mastiffs-this team composed of Tibetan mastiffs, for any pack of wolves, Definitely its biggest threat.

In order not to disturb the wolves, the cavalry was first sent to scout around.

Fortunately, Ah Sang and Uncle Ka knew the surrounding terrain well. Under their guidance, they carried out targeted reconnaissance on several important locations.After about an hour, I finally got the answer I wanted: a pack of wolves was drinking and resting by a river called March Bay.

Just because the scouts were afraid of disturbing the wolves, they didn't dare to approach. After looking at it from a distance, they hurried back to report.But the number he reported shocked everyone. According to his analysis, after just a few glances, it was estimated that there could be no less than forty wolves.Uncle Ka, who was listening, kept sighing: how many herdsmen had to be harmed by it to feed so many wild wolves.And this is already within the scope of large groups of wolves except for the wolf disaster, which is a rare thing.If they are not eradicated quickly, it is very likely that a wolf disaster will form within a year or two.This has strengthened everyone's determination to completely eradicate it.

Immediately, everyone deployed immediately based on this information, and quickly gathered and set off.

At this time, the Tibetan Mastiff's overall spirituality than ordinary dogs was revealed: except for Dahei, who does not need to be reminded by his owner Asang, although other Tibetan Mastiffs seem very happy when they leave the village, they run around and bark, but as long as their owners speak , They immediately shut up and followed their master obediently.The soldiers of the assault company who watched it were very envious—they had never seen a Tibetan mastiff before, how could they believe it was a dog when they saw it for the first time, and thought it was a mutant wolf.Now that these Tibetan mastiffs are so psychic, how can you not be envious?Even Zhang Qingshan secretly made up his mind: when the revolution is victorious, he will raise a spiritual Tibetan mastiff like Dahei.
